Description

Caricature of Théophile Delcassé. Caption read "French Foreign Affairs".


Accompanying biographical note in Vanity Fair read "He is now something like the biggest man in France. He did not achieve Fashoda, but he dealt with that little matter so diplomatically that he retains his Portfolio in M. Dupuy's Ministry. For he is a very clever fellow, even among Frenchmen; who can look very firm even after he has decided to yield the inevitable. He is practically the inventor of the French Colonial Department.... With all his pugnacity, or because of it, he likes music. He is an habitué of the opera".
